Help!
My '89 420 SEL was in having a near side front caliper replaced about 3 weeks ago. After this, there was a strange, but quiet clonk when going over speed bumps (for example) - and what sounded like a cv joint when pulling away and turning (obviously it wasn't that!). I assumed it was a bush or similar.
A few days ago, my anti-roll bar snapped - big bang when pulling onto the motorway.
I've been quoted £450 for parts and about £300-500 for labour to replace this - is this right?! It may not be worth doing if it is this price.
Do you think the caliper replacement made the condition worse?
If I remove it completely, is it OK to drive (I know it's an MOT fail)
Thanks in advance....
